- 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, toasted
- 1 tablespoon sweetened flaked coconut, toasted
- 1 pineapple, peeled, halved lengthwise, cored, thinly sliced crosswise

Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do not allow bottom of bowl to touch water); whisk constantly until candy thermometer registers 160u0b0F, about 3 minutes. Remove bowl from over water. Using electric mixer, beat mixture until cool and thick, about 5 minutes.
- Combine whipping cream, extract, rum and remaining cream of coconut in another large bowl. Beat until soft peaks form. Fold cream mixture and 1 cup toasted coconut into egg mixture. Freeze until softly set, stirring occasionally, about 3 hours.
